For the peace of the Lonely Band, please sacrifice yourself!

These two people are none other than Kumiko Oumae and Shuichi Tsukamoto.

"He went upstairs." After greeting Kumiko Koumae, Reina Kousaka looked at the empty wine glass and replied.

"Then let's go to the second floor to find him? We haven't seen each other for such a long time, we should meet him when he comes back to catch up." Kumiko Huangqian said, and walked towards the stairs to the second floor carelessly.

"Only people from the Mochizuki family are allowed to enter the second floor." Kousaka Reina quickly grabbed Kumiko's arm and explained.

It was Kumiko Huangqian's first time to visit Qingtingju and she only had a vague understanding of the things there. She nodded quickly and stopped.

"Then let's wait for him on the first floor." said Shuichi Tsukamoto.

"Why don't we go eat something to fill our stomachs first." Looking at the exquisitely arranged desserts on the table, Reina Kousaka licked her lips and suggested with a finger raised.

Huang Qian Kumiko looked around and saw the dazzling array of delicious food on the long table. She was almost drooling. She said reservedly, "It's not good. There are so many people here, and some of them are people I have only seen on TV."

"Don't worry, this is just an ordinary party." Kousaka Reina, who knew some inside information, walked to the dessert first, picked up a white porcelain plate with mango pudding, and with her other hand picked up a small spoon to scoop a small piece and put it into her mouth.

After eating, she showed it to Huang Qian Kumiko, who was almost unable to restrain her appetite. The next moment, Huang Qian Kumiko seemed to have suddenly realized something, picked up the plate full of delicious food and started eating.

Tsukamoto Shuichi smiled bitterly and came close to Kumiko and whispered a few reminders, saying that they heard there would be a big dinner later, so she should be moderate in her dessert before the meal and not eat too much. He also placed a glass of water next to her hand so that she could drink water if she got tired of eating or her mouth was dry.

"Compared to the spineless, arrogant and shy little boy before, Tsukamoto-san has grown a lot now." Kousaka Reina picked up the juice and took a sip, nodding with satisfaction like a mature senior who cares about the love life of her juniors.

The natural romance between childhood sweethearts is indeed...pleasing to the eye.

Episode 11: Dance? Dance!

"Grandpa, you called me?"

As soon as he entered the door, Wang Yueshuo saw Wang Yue City, leaning on the railing and looking towards the sea.

The old man had white hair but was dignified. His face and eyes, which had been weathered by the years, vaguely showed the handsomeness of his youth. His thin, withered hands tightly grasped the vermilion railing, and he stood straight. He did not look like an old man who was almost 70 years old, but rather like a strong pine tree standing on the top of a mountain.

He lowered his eyes, watching the surging waves rolling up thousands of piles of snow, and watching the fishermen returning home with full loads. His gaze was distant and blurred, as if he was thinking about something, or perhaps he was simply in a trance, his mind wandering in the sky.

But when he heard the voice of his beloved grandson and turned around, his eyes became relieved and peaceful again, as if the scene just now was just an illusory shadow in front of the boy's eyes.

"Come on." The old man laughed and waved at the boy who was walking towards him. A kind smile appeared on his face, but he suddenly restrained it. His face suddenly became cold and intimidating: "You're still a good boy, you know how to come back. You're just like your father. Now that you have a family outside, you don't want to stay with me, an old man, right?"

"Don't dare to say anything nonsense. The past two years were too busy. Things piled up and I was too busy to go home." Wang Yueshuo said with a giggle, his tone natural, and honestly let the old man's rough hands mess up the hairstyle he had spent time to style.

"You have so many excuses." Wang Yuecheng snorted, took back his hand, sighed sadly, and said, "I know men very well. I have been through the same thing as you. When I have beautiful young girls around me, I naturally don't want to talk about life with an old man."

"Indeed." Wang Yueshuo thought about it and nodded, realizing that this was indeed the truth.

"That's a lie!" The old man chopped the boy's head with his knife. "You and your father have completely different personalities. Although your father is also surrounded by beauties, he never gets involved with them. He decided to be with your mother and drew a clear line with them, living a peaceful life."

"And you? Look at yourself." The old man rolled his eyes, tapped Mochizuki Saku's chest, and said, "You've also been lucky in love since you were a child. From what I know, you can count the number of women you've met so far, right? The daughter of the Takasaka family, the girl of the Nakagawa family, the Akiyama family..."

"Ahem, some of us haven't even started yet. We're still friends for now. Don't listen to Lin's nonsense." Mochizuki Shuo suddenly cleared his throat and said earnestly.

"Okay, whatever you say." The old man shrugged indifferently and continued:

"Come on, tell me, can you choose between them now?"

"......"

Wangyuecheng put his hands together. After a long pause, Wangyueshuo still hadn't responded, but he already knew the answer in his heart.

"......Uh, can't I have them all?" Wang Yueshuo pondered for a while, raised his head, looked at the old man seriously, and asked with an extremely uncertain tone.

"Of course you can think whatever you want, after all, it's just YY in your mind." Wangyuecheng said mercilessly.

"......" Wang Yueshuo turned his head and coughed twice awkwardly.

"So what do you mean?" Wang Yueshuo asked tentatively.

Thinking that his grandson had not yet attained enlightenment, the old man sighed sadly: "Do you think it's easy to have a harem? Let me put it nicely first. Although Japanese law does not require monogamy, do you really think that those girls who like and love you will be willing to share you with other women?"

Having said that, Wang Yueshuo could no longer pretend to be confused. He looked at his grandfather's serious gaze, straightened his attitude, and put on a serious look as if he was studying: "I would like to hear more about it."

.......

At eight o'clock, the party officially begins.

Wang Yueshuo accompanied the old man and walked from the second floor to the hall under the attention of everyone.

The moment the old man appeared, the originally noisy hall suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked at the strong and healthy head of the Mochizuki family, bowed slightly to show respect, and straightened up again when they heard the old man's hearty voice.

"Is this really just an ordinary party?" Kumiko Huangqian, who was standing apart from the crowd with Reina Kousaka in the audience, murmured as she watched the scene.

"For us, of course. But for them, it's not." Kousaka Reina looked uninterested. She glanced at Mochizuki Saku who was standing next to the old man, then picked up the juice and drank it.

"Reina seems very skilled." Seeing her best friend like this, Kumiko Huangqian's nervousness disappeared a little and she joked.

"As long as you attend enough parties, you will be like me." Takasaka Reina did not refute. She had attended so many parties since she was a child that she couldn't even count them all.

Come to think of it, the first time she met Mochizuki Shuo was also at a banquet?

Under the bright lights, the sunny and outgoing little boy who could talk to anyone came to the little girl who disdained interpersonal relationships, handed her a glass of freshly squeezed juice, and said with a smile: "Do you like to be alone too?"

At that time, Lina thought it was a provocation that she had no friends around her. She bit her lip in frustration and pushed away Shuo who wanted to sit next to her. She said stubbornly: "Yes, I just like to be alone. Stay away from me."

Yes, their first meeting ended in an unhappy way.

If it weren't for what happened when they met for the second time, she and Wang Yueshuo would have become strangers.

The girl lowered her brows, looked at the juice in her hand, sighed briefly, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Why are you sighing all of a sudden?"

A familiar voice rang in her ears, and Kousaka Reina subconsciously raised her head, and happened to meet the eyes of Mochizuki Saku who came to her through the crowd. He was frowning in confusion, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and stretched out his white and clean hand.

The cold voice once again penetrated the girl's heart. Kousaka Reina stared blankly into Mochizuki Saku's sincere eyes and heard him say, "Can I ask you to dance with me?"

"Of course...of course." Kousaka Reina came to her senses and had already grasped the hand that Mochizuki Saku had extended to her.

Can't ask for it.

Unbeknownst to the girl, the moment her hand was placed in the boy's palm, a happy smile appeared at the corner of her lips.

The melodious melody of waltz slowly sounded. Kousaka Reina put her other hand on Mochizuki Saku's shoulder, while Mochizuki Saku put his arms around her slender waist, feeling the girl's soft palm and warm body temperature.

"Don't step on my feet."

Reina Kosaka reminded with a smile.

Chapter 12: What are you thinking about, sister?

Kumiko Huangqian, who was standing outside the crowd with Shuichi Tsukamoto, felt a little strange as she watched Reina Kousaka dancing on the dance floor.

The beautiful lady who seemed unattainable from the outside, whose every move gave people a subtle sense of distance and made people dare not approach her easily, was now at the magnificent ball, wearing a pure white dress, leading the young man opposite her to dance according to her steps, with a joyful smile on her pretty face.

At this moment, the girl who was enjoying herself on the stage was so beautiful that it almost suffocated her.

"I want to follow the only person in my heart." In the pavilion on the top of Daji Mountain, the black-haired girl slowly told her heart to the girl beside her, "I want to be different, I want to be unique, I want to be the most special shadow in his heart."

The cool evening breeze blew up the girl's long hair. The black and smooth hair fluttered in the wind, revealing a pair of bright and sharp eyes underneath. Under the reflection of the bright moonlight, the eyes seemed to emit a dazzling light, causing Kumiko to squint subconsciously.

"So now, have you got what you wanted?" Kumiko Huangqian looked at the boy who had his arms around the girl's waist again and murmured in a low voice.

........

"How was the dance? I didn't step on your feet, did I?"

The dance was over, and Mochizuki Shuo's tone seemed a little proud. He was about to take back his hands from Lina's waist, but when he lowered his head, he found that the girl's vision was hazy, and there seemed to be a few drops of crystal water in her light purple eyes.

Burying her face in Mochizuki Saku's chest, Kousaka Reina took a breath through her nose, pursed her lips into a beautiful arc, chuckled to herself a few times, and gracefully left his arms at the moment when the boy was about to make the next move.

"Your dancing skills are only just mediocre." Lina pushed aside the hair that was blocking her vision, and commented with a cold face, her voice lacking any emotion.

"Ah~ There's nothing I can do about it." Wang Yueshuo spread his hands and explained casually, "After all, I haven't been able to dance with a girl for a long time."

"Let me think, it's been about two or three years?" He held his chin up, thinking.

"Don't forget, your first dance was also with me." Kousaka Reina twirled her hair, and the soft hair circled around her white fingers several times.

"Yeah, if Reina hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten it." Mochizuki Saku smiled and didn't deny it. Although you were the first one at the dance, the dance teacher who trained me from being ignorant to being proficient was Akiyama Mio.

The lights on the dance floor changed, and when they were tired, Mochizuki Saku and Kousaka Reina came down and sat down at a nearby table. Reina lazily picked up a small fork and stabbed the fruit, then took small bites and put it into her mouth.

"By the way, have you had dinner?" Wang Yueshuo picked up another glass of champagne from the tray in the wine waiter's hand. The light fruity aroma of the wine collided on his tongue and taste buds. He nodded with satisfaction and took another sip.

"No." Kousaka Reina picked up another piece of watermelon and answered while chewing it.

"Then try this."

Wang Yueshuo put down the champagne and picked up a clean plate. He picked up a few slices of tender steak, pan-fried smoked fish and medium-rare lamb and placed them next to the girl. He said, "Those desserts and fruits won't make you hungry. Eat this. Although you eat less at night, you still have to eat more to avoid getting sick in your stomach."

"I know, I know."

Kousaka Reina said perfunctorily with an impatient tone, but there was a hint of smile on her lips, and her fair and bright face was full of smiles. If someone who knew her saw this scene, they would probably be so surprised that their eyes would pop out.

"do you have time tomorrow?"

"Yes, I have."

"So, how about going out with me tomorrow?"

Kousaka Reina's pupils dilated and she froze in place. She thought it was a joke and was about to turn around to join in the fun, but she saw Mochizuki Saku staring at her with his serious eyes without blinking.

"...What...are you doing?" The girl tried her best to straighten her face so as not to show her pale face. Her hands hanging by the edge of her skirt were quietly clenched tightly.

Although it was a question, judging from her fixed gaze, it was just an insincere remark uttered by the young girl named Kousaka Reina in order to cover up her out-of-control emotions and sudden shyness.

"I just want to get together with you old friends and exchange some feelings." Wang Yueshuo waved to Xiuyi who was not far away, then leaned down gently, looked directly into the pair of light purple eyes, and said with a sly smile:

"You didn't misunderstand anything, did you?"

.........

When I got home, it was almost twelve o'clock.

Wang Yueshuo quietly pushed open the door, poked his head out from the crack, and glanced around the room.

It was pitch black, with no other sound except the hum of the air conditioner.

Then, Wang Yueshuo tiptoed through the living room and then sneaked back to the bedroom.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, Wang Yueshuo raised his head for some unknown reason and met the eyes of the serious-looking little girl sitting on his bed.

"I'm super!"

"..."

Silence is the bedroom of Wang Yueshuo tonight.

"No, why are you in my room again?"

Looking at his sister who was sitting in front of him with a serious expression as if she was going to be tried in court, Wang Yueshuo frowned in confusion, blinked his eyes, and asked curiously.

Mochizuki Rin closed the paperback, raised her hand to push the loose hair behind her ears, and stared at Mochizuki Saku with her watery almond eyes, who had an embarrassed expression.

The strapless violet nightgown showed off the girl's delicate collarbone and milky white skin.

Looking down along the folds of the violet nightgown's chest, first you see the undulating snow-capped peaks, and then two slender legs full of the youthful aura of a girl. Her white thighs are clearly exposed, and her pink little feet step obediently on Wang Yueshuo's quilt.

Wow, this little girl is growing up so fast.

"Why are you back so late?"

"Grandpa had a lot of fun at the party. He met a lot of old friends and chatted for a while because he was excited."

"Remember to remind grandpa next time. It's almost twelve o'clock now. If you waste more than ten minutes washing up, it will soon be the next day." Mochizuki Rin looked at Mochizuki Shuo suspiciously and reminded him.

Mochizuki Shuo chatted with Lin for a few words, and seeing that Lin was still sitting on his bed and didn't move, he sat down next to her, tapped her head, took out a mango pudding from his pocket and handed it to the girl's hand.

"Why don't you go back to bed?"

Mochizuki Saku rested his head on the soft pillow and cast a questioning look at his younger sister.

Chapter 13 I'm in a difficult position to speak of now

"I'm familiar with my own bed." Mochizuki Rin curled her lips and tossed and turned on the bed while holding her pillow.

"You know your bed. Do you have this attribute?" Wang Yueshuo was stunned and opened his eyes wide in confusion.

Although I haven't observed my sister carefully enough, but looking back over the past 17 years, Mochizuki Rin has only had a few temper tantrums and stayed up late. He has always been a good child of his parents and a "other people's child" in the eyes of his neighbors. Could it be that he has encountered an extremely precious hidden attribute when he returned to Kyoto this time?

"That's strange. I don't remember you being the insecure type."
